Every day, Jeff Adams and I were kicked out of the track because they were saying our tires would damage the track.

I'm still here, and it's not happening.

To me, this is the ultimate proof that if you have a strong commitment to your goals and dreams, if you wake up every day with a passion to do your job or your sport, everything is possible.

It was one of the greatest days of my life to be there in the stadium and to win that gold medal.

I can hang out in the athletes village and nobody wonders what we're doing there, they know we're there as athletes. I had a guy from the cycling team that came knocking on my door because he needed some tools, and to me, that's what inclusion, integration is all about.

I was not on at all mechanically, not very sound, ... I was saying [before the game], 'This is the day I will probably go out and throw a no-hitter.' The last time in the bullpen, my stuff was some of my better stuff.
